That is an awfully high ratio of guests to members. Why don't you guys and girls join up and get in on the fun? I swear we don't bite.

Some of them might be journalists trying to cue in on the next story. The blimp, money bombs, NV convention melee, Missouri success, and more have all been foreshadowed here.

Others might be people just curious about Ron Paul that googled in.

....Others....GOP operatives.

Its probably a mixed basket.

Whoever you are, feel free to sign up and join in on the discussion.

don't get excited over nothing - I don't ever sign on until I want to make a post or do a search, otherwise I just appear to be a lurker! so we don't know how many of those 187 are just members that haven't signed on yet.

It's actually a very common ratio of lurkers to members. On some forums it's much higher.

I've pretty much quit signing in too.
Just here to get my fix of current news
and then I'm out as quick as I can pry
my eyes away.

Why? So they can decide what not to talk about? Surely if they don't talk about Ron Paul he doesn't exist, right? Lol!

GOP Ops...hello. I'm guessing this past weekend's round of conventions has made you curious. Those of you who stood up for what's fair and right, thank you! We aren't lunatics, we are conservatives who simply want our govt to obey our Constitution. That's all. By the GOP reaction to us you'd think we were trying bring down NASCAR. Thank YOU for still having a mind of your own and seeking the facts for yourself. Please join us in our fight to save this country! If we don't, WHO WILL??????

Yep, I'm sure this accounts for many of the lurkers... like me, a few minutes ago.;)

C C Can't divert m my g g gaze from RP forums...


Lurkers include the potential pool of those just waking up from the Matrix, so don't drive them all away by being too paranoid or rude.

Worried about GOP operatives? Swarm them with huge numbers of educated voters and activists.

How about 'other' agencies, lurking, 'provoking' info or trolling for actionable evidence from RP Forums members?

Watch for those agent provocateurs... They are the ones that can create outrageous trouble right out of thin air (Timothy McVeigh comes to mind as a perfect example: He was a caustic speaking idiot that was guided, nurtured and the abused by the US Army, triggered by Waco cluster F'up, and later tweaked by FBI and ATF provocateurs, even requiring additional help making his bomb trials blow up instead of just phoofing and burning slowly via paid government assistance. Potential monster material, inched along by various government handlers.)

I'm like Forest Gump, always there observing, hearing and remembering the strangest assorted bits and pieces of information, sometimes in the most unexpected places, not due to any special effort or intent on my part. e.g., I told two FBI field agents (who think I'm quite nuts) just last week, "I'll call 'em if I ever encounter anyone plotting, planning any violence". I don't expect anyone on these RPforums to advocate violence ...unless of course, [I]they are the agent provocateur who is fishing, lurking, cleverly hinting or suggesting violence, etc. It can get tragic when those government agents (usually from different agencies) start provoking each other while undercover... Sometimes an agent will appear on-line as two or three people having a conversation - to help befriend, convince, provoke or entrap. Don't become a rope-a-dope victim, but don't let a monster like McVeigh slip right past you without speaking up about it!

Those agents tend to be very intelligent, dedicated and sincere people. Unfortunately, THEY have consumed the gubermint flavored Cool-Aid and have contracted power induced mental impairments that prevent them from seeing themselves as yet another threat to these United States (society and economy). They smoothly rationalize ignoring the US Constitution that they have taken an oath to uphold, and are now going after victimless pre-crimes using their newest "intent click" tool, i.e., FBI prosecutions for child porn,where 'intent clicking' can get you sentenced to 10 years in club fed.. just for clicking a URL that goes nowhere.

The USA has the greatest percentage of incarcerated citizens but is still known as "a free country". What a PR spin to fool us! Unfortunatly the rest of the world sees through it (we might be a nation of fools, but we're dangerous fools, not to be messed with).

Also keep in mind, big-bro can read anything without "joining" or appearing on any website log, just like having all your phone calls (and those of your friends and their friend's calls) all routed to 'em for recording or word searches, etc. without them ever having to call you or you initiate it by calling them.

Problem is, most of it's BS and it tends to clog the system with tripe so they miss anything important, 'till after the fact. The "we will hunt you down and lock you up" deterrent is the only redeeming quality I can see. Yet, the 9/11 flight crew managed to figure a way around that one too. And Liberty yields...

These are interesting times and RP Forums in an interesting place.

Educate, get good candidates into office, have fun,
don't initiate force or fraud ...and don't feed those trolls!

I worry about how the gov/media might be plotting to justify why the USA needs to attack Iran or how to scare the masses back into "needing" more and more government.
